Download or read book Pierre Teilhard De Chardin on People and Planet written by Celia Deane-Drummond and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity's relationship to nature is central to the work of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, an influential priest and scientist of the twentieth century. Teilhard believed that spiritual development must be viewed alongside material development and that evolutionary theory lies at the heart of humanity's understanding of its place in the world. 'Pierre Teilhard de Chardin on People and Planet' argues that Teilhard's cosmic mysticism and intense interest in both cosmological and evolutionary sciences are highly relevant to current debates about how best to construct a meaningful spirituality. The book offers a critical revision of Teilhard's thought in the light of current debates in evolutionary science, eco-theology and environmental ethics. The essays present fresh interpretations of Teilhard's work and point to the significance of his thought in the contemporary study of science and religion.
Download or read book Teilhard de Chardin written by David Grumett and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955) has been regarded for too long as an isoteric thinker who evacuates theology by subjecting it to scientific theory. There is an urgent need to reclaim him as a French catholic theologian with intellectual roots in the early twentieth century. Teilhard's imaginative and inspiring work is grounded in the constructive use of biblical and patristic motifs and in his own life experiences of war, exile and scientific endeavour. From these, he develops a distinctive philosophical theology which combines elements frequently assigned to the separate domains of philosophy of religion, systematic theology and mysticism. Teilhard provides a detailed theology of human embodiment and natural substance, whilst his theories of human action, passion, vision and virtue offer suggestive resources to pastoral theology. His evolutionary cosmology and social democratic politics are discussed in their historical context, and the significance of his work for the ongoing dialogue between science and religion is assessed."--BOOK JACKET.
Download or read book Teilhard De Chardin Makers of the Modern Theological Mind written by Doran McCarty and published by Waco, Tex. : Word Books. This book was released on 1976 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Pierre Teilhard de Chardin is one of those unusual men who fit no mold and cannot be easily labeled. A complex and brilliant thinker, he had a simple and mystical faith. A Frenchman who loved his homeland, he spent most of his life in China because he was not allowed by his superiors to teach in French. As a Jesuit priest he held views on creation and evolution considered highly suspect and unorthodox, yet he submitted humbly to his order’s prohibition against teaching or publishing during his lifetime. His profession-palaeontology-called on him to study the past, but the greater portion of his thinking and writing has to do with the future-the future of man and society. Teilhard de Chardin is one of the few modern thinkers who have tried to integrate all phenomena into one system. His first book, The Phenomenon of Man, published after his death, took the reading public by storm because of its vast sweep and bold attempt to create a complex and cosmic system from both a scientific and a Christian point of view. Doran McCarty’s treatment of Teilhard covers all the important aspects of his life and thought. Here you will find discussions of Teilhard’s views on the nature of God, the nature of man, the structure of reality, creation and evolution, democracy and totalitarianism. Here too are explanations of his unique terminology, including centreism, withinness, Christogenesis, Christophere,noosphere, the Omega Point. Dr. McCarty presents Teilhard’s ideas in more traditional terms, while still remaining faithful to the original complexity and terminology. This is especially important since Teilhard never had a chance to refine his thought against the reaction and criticism of the scholarly world. Dr. McCarty’s treatment is an excellent introduction for the person who wants to know more about Teilhard, as well as being a useful and important study of this unique and influential thinker.”- Publisher

Download or read book Catholic Christianity in Evolution written by Alan Sage and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity, and its theological and spiritual underpinnings, does not fulfil the needs of people living in a rapidly changing world. For all its good intention, the Catholic Church has failed to provide the necessary religious tools to its congregants and wider Catholic community to confront the ecological and environmental problems that confront mankind. This book sets out the required parameters of spirituality within an evolutionary world context, linking the theological with the practical, under the aegis of the Jesuit Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. His writings promote a concept of God at the centre of the world we live in - a Christian way of living, fully engaged. At the heart of Teilhard's world view are creation, evolution, and the environment. He provides the spiritual tools to understand a God that is, in real effect, our evolving world and our actions toward it. In looking after God's world through our daily commitment we meet the needs of the whole of creation. And this makes Christian faith truly meaningful and of direct relevance to our living in the world. Indeed, the second encyclical of Pope Francis (Laudato si') with its care for our common home message, is Teilhardian in its outlook. Likewise the Pope's sacrament of the brother teaching. Because of the inextricable link between human activity and the creative work of God, Teilhard saw all human endeavour as holy. Herewith the Ignatian theme of 'finding God in all things', coupled with a cosmic approach to redemption and the notion of ongoing divine creativity. Teilhard's vision is a template for understanding our place in the world, our intimate relationship to the whole of creation and our responsibilities to the environment and to each other. Teilhard asks us to face the challenges of a rapidly changing world as co-creators with God - a tremendous privilege but also an awesome responsibility. An Appendix lists all of Teilhard's writings and their publication sources, divided into five main sections, and further subdivided by topic - an indispensable resource tool for Teilhard scholars, and for readers familiar with The Divine Milieu and The Human Phenomenon.
Download or read book The Future of Man written by Teilhard de Chardin and published by Image. This book was released on 2004-04-20 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Man is a magnificent introduction to the thoughts and writings of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, one of the few figures in the history of the Catholic Church to achieve renown as both a scientist and a theologian. Trained as a paleontologist and ordained as a Jesuit priest, Teilhard de Chardin devoted himself to establishing the intimate, interdependent connection between science—particularly the theory of evolution—and the basic tenets of the Christian faith. At the center of his philosophy was the belief that the human species is evolving spiritually, progressing from a simple faith to higher and higher forms of consciousness, including a consciousness of God, and culminating in the ultimate understanding of humankind’s place and purpose in the universe. The Church, which would not condone his philosophical writings, refused to allow their publication during his lifetime. Written over a period of thirty years and presented here in chronological order, the essays cover the wide-ranging interests and inquiries that engaged Teilhard de Chardin throughout his life: intellectual and social evolution; the coming of ultra-humanity; the integral place of faith in God in the advancement of science; and the impact of scientific discoveries on traditional religious dogma. Less formal than The Phenomenon of Man and The Divine Milieu, Teilhard de Chardin’s most renowned works, The Future of Man offers a complete, fully accessible look at the genesis of ideas that continue to reverberate in both the scientific and the religious communities.

Download or read book Christianity and Evolution written by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and published by HMH. This book was released on 2002-11-18 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of The Phenomenon of Man reconciles passionate faith with the rigor of scientific thinking. With his unique background as a geologist, paleontologist, and Jesuit priest, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was a powerful exponent of the view that scientific theories could comfortably coexist with religious faith. To this day, his ideas provoke passionate debates in communities that view science and faith as necessarily separate ideologies. In this collection of nineteen essays, Teilhard seeks to illuminate a middle ground between science and religion that he felt both disciplines could accept. He explores the Fall and original sin, the possibility of life on other planets, and the role that God may have played in the process of human evolution, successfully challenging contemporary theologians to rethink their views of the universe and its creation. “Like other great visionary poets—Blake, Hopkins, Yeats—Teilhard engages the reader both intellectually and sensually.” —The Washington Post Book World “An excellent blend of theological speculation with practical or ascetical application.” —Catholic Telegraph
